— Gabriel Malor If you're partial to these sorts of things, here's 17 minutes taken from various tracks of Hans Zimmer's 'Man of Steel' soundtrack.
It comes out June 11th. I'm really looking forward to it. I still frequently listen to Zimmer's 'The Dark Knight' and, less frequently, 'Dark Knight Rises.' It's time for a new one.
You better believe the cobs have more content on the way. But for now, this is an open thread.

Daily Press Conference was pushed back to 3:15 today on CSPAN
The late hour, on a Friday news dump, is due to them meeting with select reporters on the WH staff behind the scenes. No doubt to polish the turd of their talking points.
I am betting FOX was not invited, but we'll see.

Rush made me chuckle today, when he called the LGBT crowd the "bacon lettuce and tomato people." Of course he was adressing the federal student loan applications remplacing mother and father with parent 1 and parent 2, so my mirth was short-lived.
Fookers.

Glancing at the box office receipts...
GI Joe seems to have been a bust
The Big Wedding starring all the has-beens was a bust
OZ the Great and Powerful* kicked ass -- why?
Evil Dead did okay, but it was cheap to make, anyway
Pain and Gain is doing okay but it's about to be crushed by Gatsby, in addition to Iron Man 3.
*Bruce Campbell has a part in it, of course, thanks to his friend Sam Raimi

He's hit or miss. Every now and then he'll churn out something brilliant like The Thin Red Line(even if you hate the movie, the score is incredible), Inception, Gladiator, and The Rock. The rest of the time it does sound like he's just pulling a James Horner and regurgitating the same motifs.

Brandon, if it had the same problems as the first GI Joe, I can understand why it fizzled. The first movie was incoherent, I thought.

The guy who wrote the soundtrack for Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves and the Keifer Sutherland Three Musketeers also orchestrated Metallica's S&M.

Anyway.. even if this is the first reboot.. it's the Christopher Reeve version all over again with Jor-el and, God forbid, General Zod. and probably a goofy Fortress o Solitude that grows from magic crystals..

Here is the link to the Seal parents on Fox earlier- the one I referenced in the earlier thread. It is worth watching, hell it might be worth it's own post, given the lack of content....

I think Edelman technically only composed part of the LOTM score, but it was a good one. Anyone who hasn't already should check out Edelman's score for Dragonheart. Yes, the movie was lame, but that's one of the finest soundtracks I've heard in the last 20 years.
